Easyjet summer 2009

Ah, for the days when we will be able to book out of school holiday times!  Manchester/Heraklion with EasyJet for May half-term.... around £1000 for 3 of us!  Fortunately I managed to book a one week package with Olympic to Kosta Chrysoula for less than the EasyJet flight, so we can look forward to our second holiday to Plakias.  I gather the rooms in KC are rather small for three people - but all the more reason to spend all our time at the far end.

I think you would have found that had you booked for that flight within hours of the  bookings opening it might have been much cheaper. The flight charges go up as the plane fills up rather than by a significant calendar date. Admittedly it would have filled up much quicker for the school holiday period than a none school holiday period. However you have done well to get an all in package cheaper than the flights only. Indeed on that basis you could almost justify spending extra on some additional accommodation if you felt you needed it.

Just booked our EJ flights - £306 for both. We normally try to avoid going from Gatwick but it's a Sunday day flight so traffic should be ok. Plus, it saved us £200 compared with the Tuesday night flight from Stansted.

Hi all

I know in the summer travelling via Athens is not ideal but having travelled with Agean Airlines from Stansted over Christmas I would consider them in the summer, prices great & a first class service on all flights. Food good & drinks soft & beer & wine included in price. Baggage checked in at stansted & collected at final destination Chania or Heraklion so leaves time for a first Ouzo at Athens with no hassle!
